TDS is forwarding a copy of this filing as required by 47 C.F.R. § 54.304(d). This filing contains confidential information that must not be disclosed to other carriers or the public under the Freedom to Information Act or any other federal or state rule or law. For example, the filing includes detailed financial information including projected minutes-of-use, demand, revenue, and rate design information that is known only to TDS and not available to any public source. If this highly sensitive and confidential information is disclosed to any carriers or the public, that disclosure would cause substantial competitive harm to TDS. A redacted version of this filing is also included so that a version may be entered on the public record should that be required. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions concerning the above-referenced enclosures.
